GolfWRX Spotted: 2021 Callaway Apex Pro irons?

Published

on

With the world’s top players gathered at Shadow Creek in Las Vegas, and many of the OEMs headquartered not too far away in Carlsbad, California, the CJ Cup is a perfect testing ground for new gear and tournament “reps”—especially with it being a no-cut event on the PGA Tour.

On the heels of the just-announced 2021 Callaway X Forged, and X forged UT irons we just spotted what looks to be the new Callaway Apex Pro irons in the bag of Xander Schauffele, who has previously used a prototype raw version of Callaway’s Apex Pro “Dot” irons (Xander Schauffele 2020 WITB).

These new 2021 Apex irons appear to follow the same design aesthetic as the new X Forged by locating a centralized weight port in the back of the head, and based on previous Apex designs and other modern Callaway irons, they most likely feature a forged cup face for extra ball speed and urethane microspheres to enhance feel.

We don’t have any more information about the new Apex line from Callaway, but we are on the case.

    Definitely Protos. I have the new Apex Pro 21 irons in my fitting cart and they are nowhere close to looking like those. The new ones feel amazing.

    I’ve seen the 2021 Apex’s and they’re not like this. I think these are probably the prototypes of the CB’s that came out this year. Next year’s Apex’s are Apex CF21, Apex Pro CF21 and Apex DCB CF21. The regular and DCBs look pretty similar to the geometric look of the current Apex’s but the Pros look kinda… old school blade-ish. You’ll know what I mean when you see them.

      Weirdly, the video on Callaway’s site of Rahm has him hitting these iron and not the CB’s.

      Is it likely they come out with new Apex non-pro irons this winter? And how about a refresh or replacement for the Mavrik Pro?
